New Beatles songs discovered in "Lost" archive: report
www.chinaview.cn 2004-07-14 08:34:27

    BEIJING, July 14 (Xinhuanet) -- A secret stash of previously unheard songs by the Beatles may have reportedly been discovered inside an old suitcase at an Australian flea market, reported CRIENGLISH.com.

    The suitcase which has not yet been examined by experts is believed to contain a treasure trove of material related to the band, including tapes containing brand new material.

    The case contained a jumble of around 400 photographs, concert programmes and sealed tapes marked "Abbey Road" the Beatles' favoured recording studio.

    The battered suitcase was bought earlier this year by a British holidaymaker near Melbourne for just 50 US dollars.

    Experts said that it was believed the case contained the long-lost archive of Mal Evans, who worked as a sound recordist and additional musician for the Beatles, and died in 1976.
